deficiency, the leading republicans

While the free-trade papers
jubilate over the restorations
voluntarily made in the wage sche
dules of some factories, they invari
ably forget to state that such in
crease does not make the rate of
pay now received by the wage
earners equivalent to tneir earn-
gs in 1S92. Another point to
which they fail to refer is that,
where wages have been advanced,
it is very often the case that such
an advance .was made to far fewer
people than were employed in 1892.
A firm may then have been employ
ing 500 hands, and even if the same
rate of wages should now be paid
it is often the case that only 65V
hands are employed. What then has

hoard of W. P. Morrow .before, nor of
ais alleged scheme to organize a filibus
tering expedition to overthrow the Dole
government. Furthermore, I talce no
tock in it. As a matter of fact, I am
inclined to think that Morrow is simply
a confidence man, who has hit upon this
expedient, as a clever way of making a
few dollars. He was to oollect $16 from
each of tfOO or more adventurers, and
that would have been the last ever
heard of his socalled daring plan tore

traction on the ground. Bland, how
ever, has already thrown down the
gauntlet to the Democrats in the Demo
cratic state central committee, aad it
may result in considerable .friction, if
nothing more. Bland had not been here
an hour before he was out in the em
phatic declaration to his followers that
the time had arrived when the silver
men should control the party machinery.
A scheme was developed today whereby
the silver men intend to secure the
state machinery and a majority of the
state committee. The plan is to let the
present committee remain and elect one
new member from each of the 15 con
gressional districts and three from the
state at-large, making a committee of
84 members, instead of 16 as at present.
Then the silver men would be in a posi
tion to force the fight in the next state
campaign on silver lines.
Mr. Bland is of the opinion that the
convention will conclude its work by
Wednesday afternoon easily, and that
its final results will be most gratifying
to the friends of silver. Beyond this the

of the committee on resolutions, he pro
poses to submit for the affirmative of
the silver men a platform that will ring

is located two miles west of Spring Val

negroes into thinking the assembly a

The negroes, as a result, remained im
their homes and the Italians fell imto
them like a lot of Apaohe Indians. The

trampled upon and made targets for. the
